Pretty good sum up. The Bears are dangerous right now. I agree with most of what you said about Fields, except that I think the biggest difference between him and Lamaar is coaching. Harbaugh has built an offense around 2 reads and run. The 2 reads are almost built in presnap regardless of D. It makes processing much easier. I haven't been watching the Bears other than high lights, but your assessment seems pretty accurate. They are playing well and playing to Fields strengths.Originally Posted by RashanGary

Great news, especially Christian Glass Watson.
Considering how fragile Watson is and how well the team has played without him, I hope they play him sparingly, a few deep routes, etc,
What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

Packers are ranked 9th in DVOA on offense, 28th on defense.
Chicago is ranked 21st on offense, 14th on defense.
Packers offense has been very good since the PIT game, CHI D since the trade for Sweat and Jaylon Johnson realizing he's not getting traded (and playing for that fat contract).
Will be a good matchup. I expect a close game. Division games often are.
Chicago has improved, especially on defense, but Justin Fields hasn't really set the world on fire as a passer. The teams they've beat on their run haven't been the top teams except for Detroit.
Many of the things that directly contributed to recent Bears wins are unusual - Josh Dobbs throwing 4 INTs, rushing for 250 yards vs. ARI, getting a phenomenal performance from DJ Moore (and stupid play from Taylor Heinecke) vs. ATL.
I'm not calling them frauds, but I don't think they've been a juggernaut either.
Keys to the game:
- Don't turn the ball over
- Utilize slot WR and RB as receivers (Bears are bad covering them)
- Stop the run game
- Blanket DJ Moore
- Keep Fields in the pocket
They do those things and they'll win easily. Problem is, most of those are defensive tasks, so I don't trust Barry.
Could this be the game we see Musgrave line up as a BIG slot? With Kraft emerging as the inline TE, its the natural next step.

Glad that trade for Chase Claypool never happened. I forgot he was in the league.
Since getting shipped off to MIA, he's had 3 catches on 5 targets. He's gonna wash out of the league.
CHI is fairly good against the run, but GB offense in 12 personnel and then motioning Musgrave (and Reed) around could cause the CHI defense some problems. Kraft and Musgrave feel like potential matchup nightmares, and I like it.
Yup. I'm expecting Fields to break some huge runs. Rashan Gary is just not that disciplined, and if Preston doesn't play, neither will Van Ness/Enagbare be. And asking a Joe Barry defense to stop the run - that happens once in a blue moon, and we had ours last week.

I admit I am nervous about this one.
Primarily because we are sporting a junior high defensive scheme led by a guy who shouldn't be leading anything other than a middle school band.

If Elgton can't go, I'm guessing they go with Runyan at LG and Rhyan at RG.

The Sean Rhyan audition. Now’s the time to see what they have. It’s not like he’s had no experience. He’s a second-year guy who’s played about 15 or so snaps a game for about half the season. Time to show what he’s got.
Now, what will they do if Myers can’t go?

Myers was a full participant in practice today, so he's probably good to go. But if not they would probably have 2 options: Runyan or Tom. If Tom, then Nijman at RT. If both Jenkins and Myers were out, then you either have:
LG Newman/C Runyan/RG Rhyan
or LG Runyan/C Tom/RG Rhyan/RT Nijman

It’s a playoff game. Big country will be out there.
Fields said Lambeau will probably be loud because there is nothing to do in GB but watch football. The fans will have a chip on their shoulders and bring the energy. Needless to say, my son and I will be booing him at every chance. And getting very loud when he’s trying to organize the offense.
There are ZERO packers pro bowlers. The players will have a chip on their shoulders and bring the energy.
It’s a playoff game for us. There is plenty of ammo for the fans and players. Lambeau gonna be lit!!!

What a dumb crap
There is a LOTTA Caramel to chase in Green Bay at the OO)))
LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?
Is that place still in business?What a dumb crap

I think so, haha. Last I was in that area, it looked open.
